Jokowi builds the ‘2024 Presidential Candidate Cabinet’, what for

President Jokowi finally inaugurated the new ministers in the Advanced Indonesia Cabinet on Wednesday, December 23, 2020. There are now more and more 2024 presidential candidates among the Jokowi aides. Just a coincidence or does Jokowi have a goal?

The six ministers recently appointed by Jokowi are the Minister of Social Affairs Tri Rismaharini, the Minister of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Sakti Wahyu Trenggono, the Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy Sandiaga Uno, the Minister of Commerce M Lutfi, the Minister of Religion Yaqut Cholil Qoumas and the Minister of Health Budi Gunadi Sadikin. The names Sandiaga Uno and Tri Rismaharini added to the string of candidates for the presidential candidate who were poor in various polls of presidential candidates who are now on the list of presidential aides.

Based on a survey conducted by Political Indicators between September 24-30, 2020 of 1,200 randomized respondents and error range 2.9% at 95% confidence level, it can be seen that several Indonesian Advanced Cabinet ministers entered the presidential candidate market in 2024. Jokowi’s assistant ministers entered the 2024 presidential candidate market in the Indicators version Politicians include Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto with 16.8% eligibility, Menparekraf Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno, 8%), Menkopolhukam M. Mahfud Md (1.3%), Coordinating Minister of Economy Airlangga Hartarto (1.2%), Minister of BUMN Erick Thohir (0.8%) and Minister of the Interior Tito Karnavian (0.4%).

Sandiaga Uno’s entry was quite surprising. It’s as if Jokowi is giving space for Sandiaga to surface by watching the 2024 presidential election.

“If the name of Sandiaga Uno is entered, this cabinet will become the cabinet of the future president, because Jokowi has managed to gather numbers of presidential candidates in his cabinet,” Median CEO Rico Marbun told detikcom, Wednesday (12/23/2020).

It could be said that currently the Cabinet of Forward Indonesia is none other than the ‘Cabinet of the Presidential Candidate 2024’. So why does Jokowi seem to build this future cabinet? It could be that Jokowi is grooming his successor so that his programs can continue in the next presidential address.

“Jokowi is ready to start talking to most of his successors, most of whom will be former presidential advisers,” said Rico Marbun, guessing at Jokowi’s political intentions.
